What a pleasure it is to announce that Ron Wallace has won the Oklahoma Writer's Federation contest in the Poetry Unrhymed Long category with "The Night".
At a bookstore in Atlanta, on the last night of our readings for the America's Emerging Poets Tour 2007 (brilliantly choreographed by Tina, by the way) Lynn, Leo, Tina and I were privileged to hear Ron read this piece.
Ron has also received First Honorable Mention in the Poetry Short Unrhymed category with "Into the Mud".
Congratulations my friend!!!

I'm sure this is only the beginning of Ron's collection of recognition and awards for his beautiful pieces of poetry. He is, and always has been, a star on the field. The Yankees do not do him justice.

Kudos to you Ron. I must admit that I am not surprised at all. In fact, I've been expecting as much. Wonderful job.
